Code 1
''Defend your Clan, even with your life. You may have friendships with cats from other Clans, but your loyalty must remain to your Clan, as one day you may meet them in battle.''

The Story
Dapplestream of the Clan of Air, Duckwhisker of the Clan of Earth, and Brownclaw of the Clan of Fire, are all friends. Dapplestream and Brownclaw are revealed to be mates, and it is revealed that Dapplestream is carrying Brownclaw's kits. Duckwhisker congratulates them, but asks them how they will raise their kits and how they will deal with the Clan of Air and the Clan of Fire's tensions. Brownclaw assures him that they will be fine, and that she and Dapplestream's kits will bring the Clans closer together.

The Clan of Air has accused the Clan of Fire of stealing prey, which the Clan of Fire's leader, Lionstar, firmly denies. The Clan of Air's leader, Firstar, does not believe her, and says they Clan will get her back. They stalk away from the border, with Dapplestream and Brownclaw looking at each other worriedly across the border.

Later, as Duckwhisker is making his way to visit his friends, he sees a battle taking place. It is between the Clans of Air and Fire, and he notices Brownclaw and Dapplestream there. A Clan of Fire omicron is attacking Dapplestream, but Brownclaw stops her, saying that she is pregnant with her kits and she cannot hurt her. Before they can react, a Clan of Air omicron attempts to attack Brownclaw. Duckwhisker jumps between them and takes the blow, which kills him.
